Watching the animals was fun enough for Jason Juban, but David Perkins was disappointed because the animals were just sitting there sleeping. He'd rather see them in their natural habitat. TJ major focus for this year's fifth II grade was the study of animals, both domestic and wild. In Mrs. Walker's English class, the students wrote poems about animals. For social studies, they each wrote reports on an animal of their choice. It was interesting, said Lisa Pizzo-lato, I liked how they had the trees and how they made it look like (the animals') homes. As an extension of the social studies class, the fifth graders took a field trip to the New Orleans Zoo. On October 20, the students, along with teachers and mothers, boarded buses for the ride to New Orleans. After arriving at the zoo, the teachers divided the children into groups of continents. The different continents were to remain together throughout their stay at the zoo. Even though the trip was meant to be educational, said Katie Washing, I thought it was a lot more fun. The children were extremely well-behaved. and the weather was beautiful, said Mrs. Rutter. It was really a delightful trip. zoo; Catherine Corbett Grady Crawford Jill Czerwinski Jonathan Davis Llwin Uonncr Amy Drcnnan Monique Due' Gloria Dupont Thomas Engquist Thomas Gleason Jill Glisson Anya Glusman Chad Grand Jennifer Guelfo Christi Gulotta
